More WOTLK Beta... (now partially hijacked for Umb's pics)

[Windzarko]

Meh, it's only the beta, won't make any odds there. You can copy him again, but that'd be another character copy used up.

Been questing in Borean Tundra, and noticed three things; firstly, that the Tundra has some really cool parts, but is on average not as good as the Fjord thus far. Secondly that they've fixed levelling again, and Lithy's managed to get most of the way to 71 quite quickly, unlike Ari who had to do almost every single quest in the Fjord to level. And finally, that it feels painful to play Lithy; I've died a couple of times and feel like I'm doing far less damage than I should. Guess mages still need tweaking and I got used to retri just destroying everything I set my sights on...

Will post a pic of the Nexus soon, got a good'un that I turned up my view distances for

You haven't signed an NDA then?

 

[Zhinrak]

I doubt they would have even had an NDA, its open beta remember. the NDA is only for in-house beta testing and alpha testing. besides where do you think sites like MMO champion have been getting all their info all their spies got killed, Blizz employees have detect stealth

 

[thatbloke]

The NDA was lifted when the Beta was opened up so that people like Lithy could get in

 

[Windzarko]

Aye, they lifted the NDA with the start of the beta; considering how much content was leaked in the alpha, there wouldn't have been any point at all in an NDA, trust me. WOTLK Wiki was reporting pretty much everything there was in the game during the alpha, a beta with this many people would be impossible to keep quiet.

Just HAD to screenie this for all to see... a little something I earned a few minutes ago...

Title of win.

 

[Huung]

Jenkins?!

Did you get to choose that as a "surname" or is it a given title?

Either way, choice of name is win

 

[Zooggy]

Ahey,

Er... Huung, did you not recognize the place where Lithy is at?

Cheers,

No.

Is that blackrock spire?

Ive only been playing since patch 2.3 so I never did any old school stuff

The only place I'd recognise it from would be the Leroy Jenkins video itself, and tbh, theres alot of underground stone walls in that game for me to be able to distinguish between them accurately

 

[Windzarko]

Yup, that's in Blackrock Spire. The door behind Lithy is the door into the room that Leeroy made famous. I grabbed a random Paladin I found in Orgrimmar, and he logged onto his friend's account to bring a third character so we could trigger the event to open the doors (needs three to set it off), then after we killed the Pyroguard, he ran into the next room, running over as many eggs as possible, hatching them all, gathered up what looked like about seventy of them before I killed the entire lot with a single Flamestrike (4k crits...) and we earned the achievement "Leeeerroooooy!" and the title Jenkins to go with it.

It's epic win.

 

[Zooggy]

Ahey,

That is indeed UBRS. Lithaella Jenkins is standing by the corpse of the Pyroguard Emberseer, which is the boss just before the infamous Leroy Jenkins room.

Title of win indeed!

Cheers,
J.

Edit: Cross-posted with Lithy (blasted multi-pages ) and also, 70 Leroy kills with a single spell. Epic.
